I like the look of this version. Telescopic so you can use it anywhere. Dont know what it's like though...

Hi Mate,

If you can stretch a little extra you can get a great quality cue from Graeme78 a member on here. He is selling some very nice Unique Cues with a Telescopic extension for £110 delivered for just this week only. He is a top guy and the cues are very good value in fact a steal at that price.

Tell him I sent you his way!

£79 is a lot for a machine spliced cue. My advice is to buy a used cue of better quality.

I have a good used cue for sale if it's any interest to you. At 57 1/4 inches it's too short for me, but is standard length for most players and is 19.2oz. It has a 'very slight' kink, that doesn't get in the way, and can only be noticed when looking down the cue with the dominant eye. The tip on it is fine and it plays very well.

It is 'near' the Warrington area if you wanted to view it, but I do have some interest in it, and no doubt it will end up going to one of the local lads once word gets around.

I don't advise buying a cue off the internet, as what is good for one person is often not good for the next, and no matter how much someone tells you that the cues they sell are great, and they're probably fantastic in 'their' opinion, unless you can try it first, you risk it not playing well for 'you'.

Welcome back to the game btw.
I too took some time out (nearly 10 years) but it's surprising how quickly you pick it up again.
